Israeli warplanes struck suspected Hamas military targets in the Gaza Strip before dawn on Friday following rocket fire from the blockaded Palestinian territory.

Fighter jets and other aircraft struck a “weapons manufacturing site and underground infrastructures” operated by Islamist group Hamas, which has controlled the territory since 2007, the Israeli army said.

Hamas reported no casualties from the Israeli strikes on the Nuseirat refugee camp and the southern city of Khan Yunis.

Two rockets had been launched at Israel late Thursday, without causing any casualties or damage.

One was intercepted by Israeli air defences, while the other hit open ground, the army said.

The last reported rocket attack from Gaza was on Tuesday night.

It came after the army announced it had found a new tunnel that crosses “dozens of metres (yards) into Israel” from Gaza.

Don’t worry about the Palis - Israel always gives a waring so they can run away to fight Israel another day, else the just bomb empty desert.

They have EVERY phone number in Gaza, and, prior to the air strikes, call the houses to be bombed so as to minimize civilian casualties.

Palestinians erect rocket launch sites on hospital roofs, in civilian apartments, etc., etc., so the Israelis call them on the phone and givem one hour to evacuate the civilians.

Was it me, I’d bomb the crap out of them (NO PHONE CALLS!) until they quit lobbing rockets into Israel!
